Superbatboy Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I'd consider marrying the sky ride if it weren't for the fact that that'd be insane There's an episode of 'My Crazy Addiction' where some woman was married to a carnival ride. It was very disturbing to say the least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwaziBSRider1 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Good thread. Journey into Imagination with Figment is my big guilty pleasure. I used to love the Old Mill at Kennywood until the Garfield re-theming made it intolerable. Nevertheless, I will ride just about any crappy dark ride I can find. I love Journey into Imagination! I just happened to wander inside for the last ride, and I noticed the picture of Eric Idle and immediately fell in love! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angle O. Descent Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Magnum XL and Mean Streak both are good bang-for-the-buck coasters when there are short lines and when you sit in the back row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prozach626 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 All of them. I'm kind of a closet coaster fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfc Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 ^Dinosaur is probably the King of the Guilty Pleasure Rides at WDW--but I do know a few people who kind of liked the now defunct Superstar Limo at DCA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoe124 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Drop rides. I know, it doesnt sound like a "Guilty Pleasure" ride, but i usually ride Drop Tower at KI like 40 times in a day. I just like them more than most people. And here is a video I took of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heth Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I will always love It's a Small World. It's obnoxious and I should dislike it, but I really don't. Also the rather ramshackle Geister Rikscha in Phantasialand always amuses me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNYCoasterguy11 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I used to love riding the old Nightmare at Crackaxle Canyon roller coaster at Great Escape. I know I was just an off the shelf model, but being in pitch black just made it all come together. Kind of like a poor mans Space Mountain. I also love any top spin, just the flipping around is enjoyable to me, especially the hang time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 ^I feel the same way about Skull Mountain at Six Flags Great Adventure. ^^I liked the old "Silver Mine" ride at Phantasialand, as it was sort of like Pirates of the Caribbean, only with cowboys, miners, and banditos.

valleyfairfanatic Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 This really isn't a ride but I LOVE riding the Minnesota Valley River Railroad at valleyfair. I would literally ride it for hours after my shifts because I was too tired to walk around the park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick_rc_fan Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Gotta go with my all-time favourite coaster, the Minebuster at CW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDedios432 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 "After 30,000 years of time travel, here we are, a truly global community, poised to shape the future of this, our Spaceship Earth." Spaceship Earth at EPCOT. Whenever I see it peeking from the parking lot, I get really excited. When I'm on it, I'm blown away by the fact that we're in this gigantic sphere instead of a traditional show-building, tucked away in some corner of the park. Sure, there are moments of cheesy goodness...but I actually find the ride inspirational..which I didn't expect from a theme park attraction! LOVE Spaceship Earth!!

dmaxsba2408 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 These days I don't think I have any guilty pleasure rides but many years ago I did. Probably the only person in the world who actually liked Son Of Beast (loop version) and honestly have missed it ever since the loop was removed. It was my guilty pleasure ride, the ride I would sneak off and ride a few times when I visited Kings Island since I already knew nobody I was there with would ride it with me. After the loop was removed and the coaster trains changed I still road it every once in a while but I pretty much gave up on sneaking off to ride it. But thanks to Robb I still get to ride it on YouTube. Thank you Robb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Intamax92 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Any vekoma SLC, especially the very first one at Walibi Holland: El Condor. I don't really 'sneak' on it though, I just try to get everyone to go with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mracsified Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I love the Poseidon's Fury walk-through ride at IOA. While it does not get as much credit as it used to due to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and other major attractions at the park, it is a must ride for me. I love the effects of the water tunnel and how you're temporarily blinded. The moment when the set becomes much bigger and the battle finale takes place is just awesome. Also, I love the theming of the show building, how its built like a ruined temple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgeboy Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I often feel like the only person who liked Flashback (SFMM; Z Force at SFGA I think? But I never rode it there). I know most said they got their heads banged around like crazy, but for some reason, I never really did. I still kinda miss that ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmerleeberry Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 All right, folks, are you ready for a confession? Okay, there are certain parks that have these low altitude spinning boat rides that I love to ride so much. I'm talking about the Flying Pirate Ships at Six Flags America, The Santa Maria at Six Flags over Georgia, and The Flying Dutchman at Kentucky Kingdom. Do you want another guilty pleasure ride I like to do? I will also try to ride the Carousel, but sit on the bench seats. Hey, sometimes we riders and amusement park flyers like to ride low impact rides in between those thrill rides to help us cool down and recover for the next thrill ride.

Beanzear Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I love a lot of the rides you guys listed! Are we not supposed to like a looping starship??? haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterP Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 So what I'm getting from this thread is that I should feel guilty because I love Schwarzkopf coasters, log flumes, haunted houses, Spaceship Earth, the TTA... Jeez. I grew up Catholic and never felt so much needless guilt being thrust upon me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
